The Huntingdon Local Necs of Saturday
tells this snake story: A peculiar snake or
dragon was killed by Richard Roper, fore
man OF the Star Ore Mine, near Shade Gap,
this county, few days ago. The reptile,
we are creditably informed, was seven feet
eight inches long, of ID blush color, and
had two lego three inches long and two
feet one inch long, shaped like human
foot. 1t was impossible to capture the
strange creature alive, as it showed fight,
and Mr.. Roper was obliged to kill it, We
learn tfat the snake was photographed. so
that doubling ones may have an opportun-
ity of verifying the truth of the snake
story.

Mr.. j, Ii. Maize, Esq, left for his farm
in Clayton, Kent county, Delaware, last
week. Mr. Maize was one of our active
citizens for over twenty years. After serv-
Ing three years in the war of .he rebe- lion
he came to Bloomsbury IN the Fall of 1865
and soon after opened grot cry store,
which he conducted very successfully until
1870. AS early as 1866 Mr.. Maize seems to
have determined to choose the legal pro-
fession, as he then registered as student
with NJ. E. Jackson, Esq, OF Berwick.
His business of merchandising so occupied
his time that he partially abandoned the
thought of legal profession. We find,
however, that in 1875 he registered with
Robert F. Clark, Esq, of Bloomsbury; and
again, in 1870, with Hon. G. r. Buckalew,
of Bloomsburg. About this time he quit
merchandising and devoted his time to
reading law and was admitted to the Bar
of Columbia county in February, 1881. He
continued practicing in Bloomsbury until
the time of departure and had wide cir
Gle of good substantial clients. Mr. Maize
was active and determined and made sue
cess of whatever he undertook. Kent
county has gained good citizen and Co.
lumba has lost one. We wish him success
in his new locality.

PROFITS OF MONEY LENDING.
A $500 Loan Which Cost the Borrower $40
in Three Years. Time.

A case that brought out very fully the impo-
sitions that are practiced on persons who fall
into the hands of money-lenders was concluded
In Judge Howe's room, Superior Court yester-
day morning The suit was brought by Albert
F. Kopp against John c. Fullenwider, to fore
.lose chattel mortgage given by Fullenwider
IS security for a $500 note. The evidence
showed that originally Fullenwider gave Cullo-
den & Gordon s25 to negotiate a $500 loan for
note to run four months. Fullenwider paid to
Ripley on the note s45 in jewelry and so in
cash, and when it fell due, being unable to pay
the balance. he gave Ripley so for a renewal
for the same length of time. On the second
note $50 was paid, and when it fell due $50 was
paid for renewal of the note the second time.
After that Fullenwider showed that he paid $50
at one time. and $50 at another. and a last pay
ment of $50, making in all $40 he had paid on
the note AFTER Ripley had received all these
payments, Which he regarded commissions
he sold the note to a saloon keeper named Shll-
Ter, on North Illinois street, for $3.50. After
Shuller had held the notea short time he sold it
TO Kopp for what he paid for it. There was no
record OF any payments on the note, and kopp
sued to collect, or foreclose the chattel mort
gage, which Fullenwider had given as security
Upon the instructions of Judge Howe the jury
found that the payments were good as against
Ripley, but that Kopp, being an innocent
purchaser was entitled to the amount called for
IN the note, excepting a small amount which
his hands. The exact amount of the Judgment
rendered against Fulenwider is 1929 IS The
Judgment against Fullenwider makes the 5000

SIOUX CITY'S TRAGEDY.

Colonel Woods Version of the Murder of Il
Prohibitionisf Clergyman.
New York
At the meeting of the Manhattan Temper
ance Association in the Cooper Union, yesterday,
Col d. W. Wood, the counsel for the late Rev.
George G. Haddock, ''Prohibition's first mar
tyr" who was shot Aug 3, 1886, at Sioux
City. Ia, related the circumstances connected
with the Rev. Mr. Haddock's death. The adop-
ton Of the prohibition amendment, he said, was
due to gospel temperance orators and workers.
The Republicans. fearing the loss of power,
brought test case questioning the constitution
atty of the law, and Republican lawyers and
judges declared against its constitutionalty.
Then Prohibitionists brought up the question
in the Legislature, and prohibition statute
was secured by a bare majority of one It was
obtained by the promise that the ministers
and women would see that the law
was enforced. A saloon-keeper was made
q criminal. It was discussed in the pulpit, and
business men met and denounced the law. ''It
won't work in the cities, was the cry It
determined among the Prohibitionists to try
the enforcement of the new law in Sioux CITY,
and at once the Personal Liberty party declared
that they who should attempt to enforce the
law should be thrown into the river shot. A
few Prohibitonists discussed the matter with
the speaker, who had been working to shut up
the saloons through petitions and the courts

TRAINED TO CARE FOR THE SICK.
Graduation of Five Young Ladies from the
Flower Mission Training School for Nurses

The graduating exercises of the Indianapolis

yates, with the exception of Miss c. S. Adams,
who is from Brooklyn, N. Y, are all Ohio girls
Miss Mary Bt.rnhart of Columbus. Miss Anna
r. Dean. of Xenia Miss Mary Gable, of Dayton
and Miss Mary Paris, of jamestown. They
were seated on the platform, and looked so neat
and pleasant in their nurses habits that one
might easily be tempted to get sick in order to
be nursed by them. The music for the occasion,
piano recital by Mrs. John Shaw, solos by
Mrs Irene Coolidge and Mr. NJ Bamberger and
d duet by Mrs. Lynn and Mrs. Morrison were
well rendered and generously applauded.
DR.. Jeffery talked of the humanity of Chri s.
ianity in his usual witty and happy way. He
said that he had arrived at a point when his
creed was substantially summed up in the adj
monition to do good to ones fellow-m men. That
was what Jesus Christ did when He
earth, and He left with the assurance that
whoever did acts of mercy to the poor and the
helpless was doing them for Him. This work
was in the line of Chrsts work. and was worthy
of all honor and encouragement.
DR.. Henry Jameson also addressed the class
and the audience, chiefly in an exposition of the
qualities needed to make a nurse valuable in her
service.
The annual report of the superintendent Miss
Lett, was read by Miss Mary Rariden. It
showed that the past year had been one of labor
and trial on account of the large amount of ty
phoid fever in the city, and the fact that so
many of the nurses had taken the disease. For
the last few weeks the nurses have had tie care
of eleven patients each in the day time and
thirty each at night. They duty from
ten to twelve hours daily. There were eleven
nurses and two probationary students in the
training school at the date of the report

REBELS INSULTED.

We had come TO the conclusion
that the South desired to be on
friendly terms with the Negro.
We had presumed that the war
buried that portion of race preju-
dice pertaining to the Negro sol
diers. We are confronted with
the rebels of Vicksburg, Miss,
and Memphis, Tenn, to the effect
that they must hold up the digni-
ty of southern gentlemen and
patriotism of the "lost cause" by
not marching behind a company
of colored gentlemen when they
are placed upon the same military
footing. The moment the Vicks-
burg and Memphis companies re-
fused to march behind the Wash
ington Cadets they should have

people of Washington boast OF
their Cadets and honor the man

PROF. GEO. W. COOK.

The retirement Of Prof. Robin
son, as one of the tutors O
Howard University, leaves a va
cancy which must be filled by 1
worthy and competent man
One whose morals are above sus
picion, and a man who has the
respect and confidence of. the fac
ulty of that institution and ap
preciated by the people. Such {
man we can name, as tutor o.
Mathematics, and has for SIX years
been teacher in the University
and whose ability, moral stan ding
and popularity are well known
not only to President Patten and
the faculty, but to the entire coun
try. If it is the desire OF the in
stitution TO reward merit and a.
bility, which we believe it is, we
know of no man more suit
able and acceptable for the tutor
ship of Mathematics than Prof.
Geo. w. Cook. We know and so
do the people and the students OF
the institution, that DR..
Patten has always endeavor-
ed to reward worthy young men
and women, and to elevate them
when he has found them compe-
tent. We feel assured that he
and the officers of Howard Uni
versity will deem it advisable to
nominate Prof. Cook for the po-
sition just mentioned. Howard
University is a great institution
and it has acquired its greatness
by and through the influence of
DIR. Patten and the competent
teachers in the University. The
of Prof, Cook will
not only bring more students to
the University, but it will cause
the colored people throughout the
country to have more sincerity in
the professed assertions of the
President and interest in the ele>
vation of deserving young color
ed men. 1t would be a pleasure
to US to announce In our next is
sue, to. the people of this country,
that worthy young colored man
has been elevated by the officers
of Howard University. The al.
most unanimous vote received by
Prof. Cook at recent meeting of
The Alumni of Howard Univer-
sity is au evidence of the popular
feeling in his favor.
